My Hero Academia: Deku's only hope to change the Hero Society could be Bakugo's confession to the public

My Hero Academia manga series is just a few chapters from its climax and there is no news about a possible sequel or how the author is possibly thinking of ending the series in only a few remaining chapters.

Everything aside, there is one thing fans want the author to put light on, and that is the changing of the hero society by making people know that the villains were also once like them who couldn't get justice.

But doing so could be hard, as the previous chapter saw the people complaining about not sympathizing with the villains.

So, Deku's dream of changing the Hero Society could go without completion. However, there is one key character who went through the most changes during the Final War, Bakugo. He gave up on being a bully and took down the main antagonists of the series, so, he is one of the only few heroes who speak for both sides, making him a key character for the change in the Hero Society.

My Hero Academia: Exploring Bakugo as the person who could bring a change in the Hero Society

Katsuki Bakugo is one of the main protagonists of My Hero Academia. He was introduced as a bully who would also taunt Deku for not having a quirk of his own. After Deku became the next wielder of One for All, Bakugo was stunned and his bullying got even worse than before.

The bullying continued until the Dark Deku arc began where Izuku took all the burden to himself and left the school. This invoked the feelings of guilt inside Bakugo who was bullying someone who had such a kind heart.

So, after cornering Deku, Bakugo apologized for being a bully which was one of the main reasons Deku decided to return to U.A. School.

After converting to a person who was much better than his past self, Bakugo trained alongside Deku for the final war. The two entered the final war as proper heroes and fought with their all.

Unfortunately, Bakugo was caught in the events of the final war and, supposedly, died after Tomura Shigaraki ripped his heart to shreds.

With the help of Pro Hero Edgeshotm, Bakugo made a hair-close escape from death and returned right on time to save All Might from All for One. After a heated battle, Bakugo was able to kill All for One, which was followed by the win of Deku in his battle against Shigaraki.

In the epilogue of the series, fans got to witness a new side of the hero who was sad that Deku again lost his quirk, but after All Might's appreciation, Bakugo showed a bright smile. So, Bakugo could be considered the hero who went through the most emotions during the final war.

He experienced what it feels like to be the victim and the assaulted. Currently, as of My Hero Academia chapter 427, there are no signs of someone trying to change the Hero Society. However, this thought could be bugging Deku in the back of his head and there are chances that he has no solution for it.

But Bakugo could be key to making such a big change in the Hero Society of My Hero Academia because the citizens are not willing to listen to anyone.

Bakugo, who experienced a massive change during the final war, could become the voice of the people as he knows what it feels like to become a victim and what it feels like to be saved.

So, just like Ochaco gave her speech to persuade people to support Deku, Bakugo could deliver a similar speech where he could explain the journey of how he changed. This could be the turning point for the change in the hero society.
